WHAT DOES IT COST ?

Every now and then somebody wants
to know what it costs to administer the
funds of the Missionary Society. Now
listen: Deduct from the office expenses
the Sc, S39 received for the Missionary
Society's share of the rentals of the sur
plus space of the Book Room, and it
costs one and one-tenth per cent. upon the
receipts. Please cut this out and paste
it in your pocket book, so that when you
meet a man who thinks more about the
penny spent on expenses than he does
about the ninety-nine saved for the work,
you may read it to him.

Quence if, when Jesus said, " 4e shall
be Witne seS unto me, both in JeruSa-
lem, and in all Judea, and in Samaria,
and unto the uttermOSt part of the
EARTH" the apostles had consulted the
prudence of some wise one, such as we
sometimes hear, and had confined their
efforts at home? Some one might have
said, when the parted clouds had closed
behind the assembled Lord Now let US
be reasonable. Here is the great and
wicked city of Jerusalem, and we a
mere handful of Christians. Let us
stay and save Jerusalem; then it will be
time to talk of going out into the cOun
try about. and into Samaria, and some
day God may somehow bring the great
heather world into the kingdom"
All! suppose the little Christian
church standing that day on the side of
the Mount of Olives had needed such
counsel as thatl In seventy years
Jerusalem was heap! The life of the
church would have persisted in the de-
struction of its birthplace. In a few
years Judea was over run but already
Paul bad planted missions among the
GentileS, which were to send back the
glad tidingS to deSOlate Jerusalem again.
Thank God, the little band of Christians
obeyed the Masters voice, and ceased
not to hasten with the message until all
the known world had heard
How well the Lord knew that the last
hope for Jerusalem was that the Gospel
should be carried into Samaria, into
Cilicia and Pamphylia, into Greece and
Italy, into England and America. To-
day the churches of America are send
ing missionaries to the plains of Judea.
1t is Gods own plan. We cannot i'm
prove upon it. The apostles followed it
with naked faith in the Word. We have
that and the added impetus of already
achieved success. -Dr. EIliRUOOd.
